Would be so disappointing if Lawrence ended up being the pick at #19, a mostly 2 down run stuffer, would mean we would have 3 IDL in Jones/Johnson/Lawrence that don't really offer much in terms of getting pressure on the QB on 3rd down.

Give me an injured Simmons or even Wilkins because in a quick passing league you need guys that can get quick up the middle pressure.

You can get giant space eating run stuffers later in the draft.

I watched Simmons vs Alabama this morning and came away unimpressed. I don't see all the hype.

Pro day at Tennessee was basically a one-man workout as underrated pass rusher Kyle Phillips was the main and only attraction. The defensive end did not disappoint for the 19 teams that showed up.

Phillips, who many believed deserved an invitation to the combine, turned heads at last weekends regional combine in Kansas City then improved on many of his marks during today’s workout.

Today he measured 6040 and 277 pounds, two pounds heavier than his weight from the regional combine, then timed between 4.65 to 4.68 seconds in the 40. He touched 32.5 inches in the vertical jump and 9-feet-7 in the broad jump. He was timed at 4.59 seconds in the short shuttle and 7.28 seconds in the three-cone last weekend.

Phillips was run through defensive end and linebacker drills today, looking solid in both.

He has met with the Kansas City Chiefs, Carolina Panthers, Tennessee Titans, New York Giants as well as the San Diego Chargers since the regional combine. The Chargers have also set a private workout with Phillips.

Phillips is getting a lot of interest from the pass rushing needy Buffalo Bills and New York Jets and has met with both squads.

While many project Phillips as a priority free agent, we’ve stamped him as a late round pick based off his play in 2018 coupled with his performances since January.

Phillips was one of the better players during Shrine Game practices and has now laid down a pair of terrific workouts for NFL teams.
